.... meditation and self reliance, he proceeds to describe human interaction and what he really is thinking when exposed to different situations. For instance, he describes a conversation with a young lady in which she wanted to ‘just be friends' while he being ‘male' can do nothing about the fact that he may be sexually aroused by her whether they were ‘just friends' or not. This type of unconventional expression of human emotion is the color of all of the selections. The author does not wish to conceal feeling nor put on different faces in different situations but be himself and be happy being himself at all times. Interesting stands on happiness are also exp .....

.... ruler. This fish took what he wanted because of his size. In a speech about power, he told Wart "Might is right," and might of the body is greater than might of the mind. Because of the way the fish-king ruled, his subjects obeyed him out of fear for their lives. Wart experienced this firsthand when the fish-king told him to leave. He had grown bored of Wart, and if Wart didn't leave he would've eaten him. The king used his size as his claim to power, therefore his subjects followed him out of fear. In Wart's next transformation into a hawk he soared into the castle's mews. All the birds in the mews had a military rank. Their leader was an old falcon, wh .....

.... of the books nineteen chapters deals with a certain tribe, battle, or historical event. Brown goes into deep and explicit detail throughout, as evidenced by the book’s nearly 500 pages. Some critics may say that is boring and text-book like. Although the format is set up like a text-book it makes it easier to find specific battles and examples of the atrocities that the American Indians endured. Brown has made sure to include songs, quotes, and portraits throughout the entire book. Unlike books with strictly text, these features concretely show and describe the Indians situation. The songs give a feeling of the Indians culture. The quotes stand off the .....

.... left arm was crippled due to a former injury using a cotton gin. Atticus expanded on this point by unexpectedly throwing a ball at Tom Robinson. Tom’s only reaction was to catch the ball with his right arm. This point is connected to Heck Tate’s testimony in telling the court that the right side of Mayella’s face had been severely bruised. A left-handed person would logically have inflicted this injury. Tom’s left hand is shriveled and totally useless. On the other side of the coin, Atticus shows the court that Mr. Ewell is not ambidextrous but is only right-handed. A second testimony that supports the opposite of the verdict, wa .....

.... quite immature rebel, Huckleberry Finn grew with the help and nurture of his friends and family. Throughout his expedition down the Mississippi, Huck adds onto his ever-growing knowledge. He, along with Jim, the runway slave, has plenty of time to get to know themselves and each other better. Becoming one with nature, Huck begins to see and understand the simplicity of life. Expressing his enjoyment of the uncivilized life, Hucks states, “Jim, this is nice, I wouldn’t want to be nowhere else but here.” They no longer need to have the thrill of mischief to keep them going. Merely being surrounded by the Earth’s beautiful resources now give them satisfa .....

.... description of setting, symbolism, plot development, diverse word choice, and detailed character development. In most cases, the setting is usually indelible to a story, but “The Black Cat” relies little on this element. This tale could have occurred anywhere and can be placed in any era. This makes the setting the weakest element of “The Black Cat.” Next, symbolism is always an integral part of any Poe story. The most obvious of symbolic references in this story is the cat’s name, Pluto. This is the Roman god of the underworld. Pluto contributes to a strong sense of hell and may even symbolize the devil himself. Another immense .....

.... the county home in an attempt to find a place for Flo to live, "Rose spoke of the view and the pleasant rooms. Flo looked angry; her face darkened and she stuck out her lip. Rose handed her a mobile she had bought for 50 cents in the County Home crafts centre.... Stick it up your arse, said Flo" (Oates 151). The reader sees no affection between the two. In fact, the tone of the story illustrates a lack of acceptance and even disappointment by Flo and shows that there has always been a distance between the two. The title is derived from a patient Rose met at the nursing home whose only communication was spelling words. After meeting this patient, Rose dream .....
